【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、ばね用鋼線、PC鋼線、亜鉛めっき鋼線、吊り橋用ケーブル用鋼線の素材として有用な硬引き線用鋼材およびその伸線材に関するものであり、殊に疲労強度および延性のいずれにも優れた硬引き線用鋼材およびその伸線材に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
鋼線材は上記の各種用途で幅広く使用されているが、こうした鋼線材にはより一層の高強度化が指向されているのが実状である。例えば、ばね用として用いられる鋼線材を高強度化しようとする場合には、疲労強度向上策として、伸線加工後にオイルテンパー処理を行なって疲労強度の向上を図っているのが一般的である。また、PC鋼線や撚り線等の高強度化を図る為に、圧延材の初析セメンタイト量を抑制することによって高強度で且つ良好な加工性も確保する方法や(例えば、特開平6−271937号)、パテンティング処理条件を規定して微細パーライト組織とすることで高強度化を達成するという方法(例えば、特許第182067号)等が採用されている。しかしながら、これらの方法では、多大なコストがかかると共に、作業も煩雑になるという問題がある。
【0003】
一方、負荷応力が比較的低い設計された一部の弁ばねには、フェライト・パーライト組織またはパーライト組織の炭素鋼を伸線加工して強度を高めた線材(「硬引き線」と呼ばれている)を、常温でばね巻き加工したものが使用されている。この様な硬引き線は、熱処理を必要としないので低コストになるという利点がある。
【0004】
しかしながら、フェライト・パーライト組織またはパーライト組織を伸線した線材では、疲労特性が低いという欠点があり、こうした線材を素材として用いても、近年要望の高まっている様な高応力は実現できない。また、こうした線材においては、高強度であると共により高い延性も要求されるが、高強度になるにつれて延性も低下し易く、両特性を兼ね備えることは困難であった。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明はこうした状況の下になされたものであって、その目的は、疲労強度および延性のいずれにも優れ、ばね用鋼線、PC鋼線、亜鉛めっき鋼線、吊り橋用ケーブル用鋼線の素材として有用な硬引き線用鋼材およびその伸線材を提供することにある。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記の目的を達成し得た本発明の硬引き線用鋼材とは、C:0.5〜0.82%(質量%の意味、以下同じ)、Si:0.2〜2.2%、Mn:0.5〜1.5%、Ni:0.10〜1.5%、Cr:0.05〜1.0%を含み、残部がFeおよび不可避不純物からなるものであって、圧延後またはパテンティング処理後、伸線加工されてそのまま使用されるものである点に要旨を有するものである。尚、この鋼材において、「そのまま使用される」とは、伸線加工された後にはオーステナイト化される様な熱処理が施されることなく使用されることを意味する。
上記硬引き線用鋼材は、更に、V:0.05〜0.50%や、Mo:0.05〜0.50%を含んでいてもよい。
【0007】
また、上記目的を達成し得た本発明の硬引き伸線材とは、上記の様な鋼材を伸線した伸線材であって、線径が1.5mm以上、引張強さが1700MPa以上、および平均パーライトラメラ間隔が200nm以下のものである点に要旨を有するものである。
【0008】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明者らは、上記目的を達成することのできる硬引き線用鋼材の実現を目指して様々な角度から検討した。その結果、所定量のNiを含有させた鋼材では、上記目的が見事に達成されることを見出した。
【0009】
本発明者らが検討したところによれば、Niは伸線加工に伴う加工硬化を抑制することを見出した。これにより目標とする強度を達成するための伸線加工歪を大きくすることができ、伸線後にラメラフェライトの幅を小さくできることが判明したのである。そして、ラメラフェライトの幅を小さくすることによって、せん断疲労亀裂の発生単位が小さくなり、疲労寿命が改善できるのである。また、フェライトの幅が小さくなることによって、フェライト中への転位の集積が起こりにくくなるので、疲労強度が向上すると共に、延性も改善されることも分かったのである。
【0010】
本発明の硬引き線用鋼材は、上記の様に所定量のNiを含有させることによって、上記の効果を達成するものであるが、こうした効果を発揮させる為には、Niは0.10%以上含有させる必要がある。しかしながら、Ni含有量が過剰になると、圧延においてベイナイト組織やマルテンサイト組織が生成し、伸線加工性が著しく悪化すると共に、靭性や延性が却って下するので1.5%以下とする必要がある。
【0011】
本発明の鋼材は上記した各種用途に適用できるものであり、その用途に応じて鋼材としての基本成分であるC,Si,Mn,CrおよびV等を調整する必要があるが、例えばPC鋼の場合におけるこれらの化学成分の好ましい範囲およびその理由は下記の通りである。
【0012】
C:0.5〜0.82%
Cは、十分な強度を確保するために不可欠の元素であり、その為には少なくとも0.5%以上含有させる必要がある。C含有量が好ましくは0.55%以上とするのが良いが、0.82%を超えて過剰に含有すると、靭性および延性が極端に悪くなる。
【0013】
Si:0.2〜2.2%
Siは、製鋼時の脱酸剤として必要な元素であり、またフェライト中に固溶して、焼戻し軟化抵抗を上げ、疲労強度を向上させるために有効な元素な元素である。こうした効果を発揮させる為には、Siは0.2%以上含有させる必要があるが、その含有量が2.2%を超えて過剰になると、靭性や延性が悪くなるばかりか、表面の脱酸や疵等が増加して疲労強度が劣化する。尚、Si含有量のより好ましい下限は0.5%程度であり、より好ましい上限は2.0%程度である。
【0014】
Mn:0.5〜1.5%
Mnは、製鋼時の脱酸に有効な元素であり、また焼入れ性を高めて強度向上にも寄与する元素である。こうした効果を発揮させる為には、Mnは少なくとも0.5%含有させる必要があるが、過剰に含有させると熱間圧延時やパテンティング処理時にベイナイト等の過冷組織が生成し易くなり、伸線性が著しく劣化するので、1.5%以下とすべきである。尚、Mn含有量のより好ましい下限は0.7%であり、より好ましい上限は1.0%である。
【0015】
Cr:0.05〜1.0%
Crは、パーライトラメラ間隔を小さくして、圧延後、または熱処理後の強度を上昇させ、線材の強度を上昇させるのに有用な元素である。こうした効果を発揮させるためには、Cr含有量は0.05%以上とするのが良い。しかしながら、Cr含有量が過剰になると、パテンティング時間が長くなり過ぎ、また靭性や延性が劣化するので、1.5%以下とするのが良い。
【0016】
V:0.05〜0.50%
Vは、パーライト組織中のフェライトに、炭化物や炭窒化物を析出させるのに有用な元素である。こうした効果を発揮させる為には、Vは0.05%以上含有させる必要があり、好ましくは0.10%以上含有させるのが良い。しかしながら、0.50%を超えて過剰に含有させても、マルテンサイトやベイナイト組織が生成し、加工性が悪くなる。
【0017】
本発明の鋼材をPC鋼に適用する場合における基本的な化学成分組成は上記の通りであり、残部は実質的にFeからなるものであるが、発明の鋼材には、必要によって0.05〜0.50%程度のMoを含有させて焼入れ性を向上することも有効である。また本発明の鋼材には、上記の各種成分以外にその特性を阻害しない程度の微量成分を含み得るものであり、こうした鋼線材も本発明の範囲に含まれものである。上記微量成分としては不純物、特にP,S,As,Sb,Sn等の不可避不純物が挙げられる。
【0018】
上記の様な鋼材を伸線加工することによって、目標とする疲労強度が達成されるのであるが、この疲労強度は伸線加工度を上げて引張強度を上げることによって増大する。こうした観点から、本発明の硬引き伸線材においては、その引張強度が1700MPa以上であることが必要である。但し、線径が小さくなると、非金属介在物を起点とした破壊が多くなり、疲労強度が却って低くなるので、伸線材の線径は1.5mm以上とする必要がある。
【0019】
また上述の如く、疲労強度および延性を向上させるためには、パーライトラメラ間隔を小さくし、フェライトの幅を小さくすることが有効である。そして、本発明者らが検討したところによれば、伸線材のパーライトラメラ間隔を200nm以下にすることによって、特に優れた疲労強度と延性が得られることが判明したのである。
【0020】
伸線材のパーライトラメラ間隔を200nm以下にする為には、圧延条件やパテンティング処理条件等も適切に制御するのが良いが、これらの好ましい製造条件は下記の通りである。例えば、圧延に際しては、900〜950℃で圧延を終了し、高温でコーズパーライトが生成せず、また過冷組織(マルテンサイトやベイナイト)が生成することのないように、巻取り開始までを10〜20℃/sで冷却し、巻取り温度を750〜850℃程度とし、その後パーライトノーズ付近で変態を終了させる様に、450℃までの冷却速度を0.5〜3℃/s程度で冷却する方法が挙げられる。
【0021】
一方、パーライトラメラ間隔を200nm以下にする為のパテンティング処理条件としては、900℃以上に加熱し、コーズパーライトを生成させない様に、10〜15℃/s程度の冷却速度で600℃付近まで冷却し、その温度で変態を完了させた後、平均減面率を20%以上、合計減面率が80%以上となる伸線加工を行なう様にすれば良い。
【0022】
以下、本発明を実施例によって更に詳細に説明するが、下記実施例は本発明を限定する性質のものではなく、前・後記の趣旨に徴して設計変更することはいずれも本発明の技術的範囲に含まれるものである。
【0023】
【実施例】
下記表1に示す化学成分組成の鋼(鋼種A〜F)を溶製し、熱間圧延して直径:9.0mmの鋼線材を作製した。引き続き、910℃でオーステナイト化させた後、640℃で変態完了させるパテンティング処理、および伸線処理を行なって伸線材とした。このとき、伸線加工は、伸線後の引張強度が1800〜2000MPaとなる様に最終線径を調節した。
【0024】
【表1】
【0025】
得られた各線材について、引張試験を行ない、引張強度および伸びを測定した。また、下記の各方法によって、パーライトラメラ間隔および疲労限を測定した。
【0026】
(パーライトラメラ間隔)
線材の縦断面を埋込み、研磨後、5%のピクリン酸アルコール液に15〜30秒浸漬して腐食させた後、走査型顕微鏡(SEM)によって、線材の4/D(D:線材の直径)位置を観察した。その位置で5000〜10000倍で写真撮影し、任意のラメラー10個に対して垂直に横切る線を夫々引き、その長さからラメラ間隔を測定し、その10点の平均値を平均パーライトラメラ間隔とした。
【0027】
(疲労限)
伸線加工によって得られた鋼材を用い、サンプル長さ650mmの試験片について、350℃×20分のブルーイング処理を行ない、次にインペラー式ショットピーニングマシーンによって、2段のショットピーニングを行ない、表層に圧縮残留応力を付与した。その後、220℃×20分の歪取り焼鈍を行ない、試験に供した。そして、中村式回転曲げ疲労試験を行ない、JIS Z2274の試験方法に準じて、107回で中止となる試験応力を疲労限界とした。
【0028】
その結果を、伸線加工率(減面率)と共に、下記表2に示すが、これらの結果から、次の様に考察できる。まず、No.1〜5のものは、いずれも本発明で規定する要件を満足する実施例のものであるが、優れた疲労強度と延性が発揮されていることが分かる。
【0029】
これに対して、No.6、7のものは、本発明で規定する要件のいずれかを欠く比較例であり、いずれかの特性が劣化していることが分かる。即ち、No.6のものでは、Niを含有していないものであるので、伸線加工度が小さくなり、パーライトラメラ間隔が広くなり、疲労強度が低下している。また、加工歪が大きいので、伸びも低下している。一方、No.7のものでは、Ni含有量が多過ぎるので、圧延時に過冷マルテンサイトやベイナイトが生成し、伸線中に断線していた。
【0030】

本発明は以上の様に構成されており、疲労強度および延性のいずれにも優れ、ばね用鋼線、PC鋼線、亜鉛めっき鋼線、吊り橋用ケーブル用鋼線の素材として有用な硬引き線用鋼材およびその伸線材が実現できた。[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a steel material for hard-drawn wire useful as a material for spring steel wires, PC steel wires, galvanized steel wires, and steel wires for suspension bridge cables, and its wire drawing materials, and in particular, fatigue strength and ductility. The present invention relates to an excellent steel material for hard wire drawing and a wire drawing material thereof.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Steel wire rods are widely used in the various applications described above, but the actual situation is that these steel wire rods are directed to higher strength. For example, when trying to increase the strength of a steel wire used for springs, as a measure for improving fatigue strength, it is common to improve the fatigue strength by performing an oil temper treatment after wire drawing. . Further, in order to increase the strength of PC steel wire, stranded wire, etc., a method of ensuring high strength and good workability by suppressing the amount of proeutectoid cementite of the rolled material (for example, JP-A-6 271937), a method of achieving high strength by defining a patenting treatment condition to form a fine pearlite structure (for example, Japanese Patent No. 182067) is employed. However, these methods are problematic in that they are very expensive and complicated.
[0003]
On the other hand, some valve springs designed to have a relatively low load stress have a wire rod made of carbon steel with a ferrite / pearlite structure or pearlite structure that has been drawn to increase its strength (called “hard drawn wire”). ) Is spring-rolled at room temperature. Such a hard-drawn wire does not require heat treatment, and thus has an advantage of low cost.
[0004]
However, a ferrite / pearlite structure or a wire drawn with a pearlite structure has a defect that fatigue characteristics are low, and even when such a wire is used as a material, high stress as requested in recent years cannot be realized. In addition, such a wire rod is required to have high strength and higher ductility. However, as the strength becomes higher, the ductility tends to decrease, and it is difficult to combine both properties.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention has been made under these circumstances, and its purpose is excellent in both fatigue strength and ductility, and it is suitable for spring steel wires, PC steel wires, galvanized steel wires, and steel wires for suspension bridge cables. An object of the present invention is to provide a steel material for hard drawing wire useful as a material and a wire drawing material thereof.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The steel material for hard-drawn wire of the present invention that can achieve the above object is C: 0.5 to 0.82% (meaning of mass%, the same shall apply hereinafter), Si: 0.2 to 2.2%, Mn: 0.5 to 1.5%, Ni: 0.10 to 1.5%, Cr: 0.05 to 1.0%, with the balance being Fe and inevitable impurities, after rolling Or it has a gist in the point that it is used after being drawn after the patenting process. In this steel material, “used as it is” means that the steel material is used without being subjected to a heat treatment that is austenitized after the wire drawing.
The steel material for hard wire drawing may further include V: 0.05 to 0.50% and Mo: 0.05 to 0.50%.
[0007]
Further, the hard-drawn wire of the present invention that can achieve the above-mentioned object is a wire-drawn material drawn from the steel material as described above, having a wire diameter of 1.5 mm or more, a tensile strength of 1700 MPa or more, and The gist is that the average pearlite lamella spacing is 200 nm or less.
[0008]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present inventors have studied from various angles with the aim of realizing a steel material for hard-drawn wire that can achieve the above object. As a result, it has been found that the above object can be achieved with a steel material containing a predetermined amount of Ni.
[0009]
According to a study by the present inventors, it has been found that Ni suppresses work hardening accompanying wire drawing. As a result, it has been found that the drawing strain for achieving the target strength can be increased, and the width of the lamellar ferrite can be reduced after the drawing. By reducing the width of the lamellar ferrite, the unit of occurrence of shear fatigue cracks is reduced and the fatigue life can be improved. It was also found that the reduction in the width of the ferrite makes it difficult for dislocations to accumulate in the ferrite, thus improving fatigue strength and improving ductility.
[0010]
The steel material for hard-drawn wire of the present invention achieves the above-mentioned effect by containing a predetermined amount of Ni as described above, but in order to exert such an effect, Ni is 0.10%. It is necessary to contain above. However, if the Ni content is excessive, a bainite structure or a martensite structure is formed in rolling, the wire drawing workability is remarkably deteriorated, and the toughness and ductility are decreased. .
[0011]
The steel material of the present invention is applicable to the various uses described above, and it is necessary to adjust C, Si, Mn, Cr, V, etc., which are basic components as a steel material, depending on the use. Preferred ranges of these chemical components in the case and the reasons are as follows.
[0012]
C: 0.5 to 0.82%
C is an indispensable element for securing sufficient strength, and for that purpose, it is necessary to contain at least 0.5% or more. The C content is preferably 0.55% or more, but if it exceeds 0.82% and the content is excessive, the toughness and ductility become extremely poor.
[0013]
Si: 0.2-2.2%
Si is an element necessary as a deoxidizer during steel making, and is an effective element for solid solution in ferrite to increase temper softening resistance and improve fatigue strength. In order to exert such an effect, it is necessary to contain Si by 0.2% or more. However, if the content exceeds 2.2% and excessive, not only the toughness and ductility deteriorate, but also the surface is removed. Acid and soot increase and fatigue strength deteriorates. In addition, the more preferable minimum of Si content is about 0.5%, and a more preferable upper limit is about 2.0%.
[0014]
Mn: 0.5 to 1.5%
Mn is an element effective for deoxidation during steelmaking, and is an element that contributes to improving the strength by increasing the hardenability. In order to exert such an effect, it is necessary to contain Mn at least 0.5%. However, if it is contained excessively, a supercooled structure such as bainite is likely to be generated during hot rolling or patenting treatment, and elongation is caused. Since linearity deteriorates remarkably, it should be 1.5% or less. In addition, the more preferable minimum of Mn content is 0.7%, and a more preferable upper limit is 1.0%.
[0015]
Cr: 0.05-1.0%
Cr is an element useful for reducing the pearlite lamella spacing, increasing the strength after rolling or after heat treatment, and increasing the strength of the wire. In order to exert such effects, the Cr content is preferably 0.05% or more. However, if the Cr content is excessive, the patenting time becomes too long, and the toughness and ductility deteriorate.
[0016]
V: 0.05 to 0.50%
V is an element useful for precipitating carbides and carbonitrides on ferrite in the pearlite structure. In order to exert such an effect, V needs to be contained in an amount of 0.05% or more, preferably 0.10% or more. However, even if it contains excessively exceeding 0.50%, a martensite and a bainite structure will produce | generate and workability will worsen.
[0017]
In the case where the steel material of the present invention is applied to PC steel, the basic chemical component composition is as described above, and the balance is substantially made of Fe. It is also effective to improve the hardenability by containing about 0.50% Mo. Further, the steel material of the present invention may contain a trace amount component that does not impede its properties in addition to the various components described above, and such a steel wire material is also included in the scope of the present invention. Examples of the trace component include impurities, particularly inevitable impurities such as P, S, As, Sb, and Sn.
[0018]
The target fatigue strength is achieved by drawing the steel as described above. This fatigue strength increases by increasing the degree of wire drawing and increasing the tensile strength. From this point of view, the hard drawn wire material of the present invention needs to have a tensile strength of 1700 MPa or more. However, if the wire diameter is reduced, the number of fractures starting from non-metallic inclusions increases, and the fatigue strength decreases. Therefore, the wire diameter of the wire drawing material needs to be 1.5 mm or more.
[0019]
Further, as described above, in order to improve fatigue strength and ductility, it is effective to reduce the pearlite lamella spacing and the ferrite width. As a result of studies by the present inventors, it was found that particularly excellent fatigue strength and ductility can be obtained by setting the pearlite lamella spacing of the wire drawing material to 200 nm or less.
[0020]
In order to set the pearlite lamella spacing of the wire drawing material to 200 nm or less, it is preferable to appropriately control rolling conditions, patenting treatment conditions, and the like, but preferred manufacturing conditions are as follows. For example, at the time of rolling, the rolling is finished at 900 to 950 ° C., the cause pearlite is not generated at a high temperature, and the start of winding is performed so that no supercooled structure (martensite or bainite) is generated. Cool at ~ 20 ° C / s, set the coiling temperature to about 750-850 ° C, and then cool down to 450 ° C at a cooling rate of about 0.5-3 ° C / s so that the transformation is completed near the pearlite nose. The method of doing is mentioned.
[0021]
On the other hand, as a patenting treatment condition for setting the pearlite lamella spacing to 200 nm or less, it is heated to 900 ° C. or more and cooled to around 600 ° C. at a cooling rate of about 10 to 15 ° C./s so as not to generate cause pearlite. Then, after the transformation is completed at that temperature, the wire drawing process may be performed so that the average area reduction rate is 20% or more and the total area reduction rate is 80% or more.
[0022]
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail by way of examples. However, the following examples are not intended to limit the present invention, and any design changes in accordance with the gist of the preceding and following descriptions are technical aspects of the present invention. It is included in the range.
[0023]
【Example】
Steels (steel types A to F) having the chemical composition shown in Table 1 below were melted and hot-rolled to produce a steel wire having a diameter of 9.0 mm. Subsequently, after austenitizing at 910 ° C., a patenting treatment for completing transformation at 640 ° C. and a wire drawing treatment were performed to obtain a wire drawing material. At this time, in the wire drawing, the final wire diameter was adjusted so that the tensile strength after wire drawing was 1800 to 2000 MPa.
[0024]
[Table 1]
[0025]
About each obtained wire, the tension test was done and the tensile strength and elongation were measured. Further, the pearlite lamella spacing and the fatigue limit were measured by the following methods.
[0026]
(Perlite lamella spacing)
After embedding the longitudinal section of the wire, polishing, and immersing it in a 5% picric alcohol solution for 15-30 seconds to corrode it, 4 / D of the wire (D: diameter of the wire) by a scanning microscope (SEM) The position was observed. Take a picture at 5000 to 10000 times at that position, draw a line perpendicular to 10 arbitrary lamellars, measure the lamella spacing from the length, and average the 10 points as the average pearlite lamella spacing. did.
[0027]
(Fatigue limit)
Using a steel material obtained by wire drawing, a test piece having a sample length of 650 mm was subjected to a blueing treatment at 350 ° C. for 20 minutes, and then subjected to two-stage shot peening by an impeller type shot peening machine. A compressive residual stress was applied to the sample. Thereafter, 220 ° C. × 20 minutes of strain relief annealing was performed and used for the test. Then, the Nakamura-type rotating bending fatigue test was performed, and the test stress that was canceled 10 7 times was defined as the fatigue limit according to the test method of JIS Z2274.
[0028]
The results are shown in Table 2 below together with the drawing rate (area reduction rate). From these results, it can be considered as follows. First, no. Although the thing of 1-5 is an Example which satisfies the requirements prescribed | regulated by this invention, it turns out that the outstanding fatigue strength and ductility are exhibited.
[0029]
In contrast, no. Examples 6 and 7 are comparative examples lacking any of the requirements defined in the present invention, and it can be seen that any of the characteristics is deteriorated. That is, no. In No. 6, since Ni is not contained, the degree of wire drawing is reduced, the interval between pearlite lamellas is increased, and the fatigue strength is reduced. Further, since the processing strain is large, the elongation is also reduced. On the other hand, no. In the case of No. 7, since the Ni content was too large, supercooled martensite and bainite were generated during rolling and were disconnected during wire drawing.
[0030]
[Table 2]
[0031]
